[@richardNbacchus]

@@rindoubaka1574 what do you mean that he's a wet blanket?

[@rindoubaka1574]

@@richardNbacchus He doesn't particularly have many interesting and unique insights on a given film and talks about most films almost monotonously. Although I do like the passion he has behind some films, for example his review of Signs. So whereas Jeremy is vibrant and very personal with his reviews, Stuckmam feels more detached and indifferent in his delivery. A lot of the time I feel he favours praising the technical achievements of a film over the story driven qualities. Idk my opinion is pretty subjective, just to me, his reviews are never really all that informative. Jeremy is my go to on whether I might enjoy a film.

[@surft]

@@rindoubaka1574 maybe because he's coming from the perspective of being film maker himself. His hilariosities are pretty fun for me.

[@rosmilihunter4283]

What drama? The title of your video is misleading. Pretty lousy way to get people to watch your stuff.

[@JumbledEye]

Its a little risky to go see a movie without Jahns' and Stuckmann's input first

[@booman62990]

My favorite is actually when they don’t agree and I see both sides points.

[@jonathantefft2902]

I feel like Stuckmann's review will tell me how much I personally will enjoy the movie, and Jahns review will tell me how much my friends will enjoy the movie.

It sucks man, it feels like the great era of film talk is dying. It used to be amazing. Chris and Jeremy were at their prime. John Flickster was starting to really blow up. Screen Junkies was on fire. Schmoe’s Know was so much more popular. It was good times. I think right now, Sean Chandler and 3C are probably the best film talk guys we have on KZbin but the film industry just doesn’t seem as exciting anymore.

[@markmccallum475]

I thought this was a discussion between Jeremy and Chris.

[@titanfighter12]

The Siskel & Ebert idea would have worked I think...I like Stuckmann for the depth of his reviews and Jahns covers more ground from a casual perspective

[@Flaming_penguin]

Exactly, Chris evaluates films from an in depth, scholarly perspective. Jahns knows much less about film theory but provides a good perspective for the average moviegoer. Let’s be honest, many films that Chris would praise Jahns would find boring. And many movies Jahns might find exciting Chris might see as flawed. They both provide a different perspective for every type of movie fan.

[@zacktobin8026]

Stuckmann and Jahns should become this generation’s Ebert and Roeper

[@brucesnow7125]

[@jongon0848]

Jeremy's more for the casual viewer, Chris is more for film lovers and filmmakers. I personally prefer Chris's reviews. He's much more in depth with his reviews and knows how to relate with each film's intended audience. Although I will say, he's definitely gotten a lot pickier with his film ratings, it's become such a rarity when a film gets an A+ now.

[@SHIZZLE71]

I prefer Jeremy. To me he’s the most entertaining and I agree with him the most although I do make sure to check out Chris’ review too

[@MichaelBrown-rg8oi]

It seem's Chris has also come to that realization and now he doesn't even grade movies... Which I understand where he is coming from but I'm kinda bummed out he doesn't anymore as 95% of the time I agree with his grade (at least the letter)

My thoughts exactly. It's fun to get behind-the-scenes "drama" (and lack thereof)

[@Fullmetal1890P]

This has gotta be the most shameless attempt at winning back Jeremy Jahns and Chris Stuckmann I've ever seen. Seriously dude? "It's my fault, but it really isn't my fault because it was my bosses' faults, but either way I'd do things differently now, I'm still a big fan, but they didn't like their shows anyway which was my fault, but it really wasn't my fault..." Repeated for ten minutes. This has to be the most carefully-worded LA "biz" talk I've heard on KZbin in a while. It's so obvious that you're trying to not offend anyone while still insisting that you were in the right and no one else held up their part of the bargain. Absolutely no accountability, just apologies on behalf of other people for the position *you* were in while ass-kissing these extremely successful KZbinrs you've likely spent the past 5 years shit-talking at the bar. This is exactly why I hate the corporate side of KZbin, it's no fucking different than any other bullshit reality show.

[@plutoburn]

In my experience, successful youtubers don't view people doing similar things as rivals. This make sense as the product they sell is kind of "free" so if they work together they actually grow both of their channels.

[@mannholloway]

OMG I had no idea these guys even knew each other but they are the only reviewers I watch

[@azel8rrp169]

I like both but I prefer JJ's more down to earth reviews to the increasingly snobbier and middle ground CS's reviews. PS: Title Clickbait as hell.

[@erickmelendez1603]

I absolutely loved Jeremy Jahns game show. It worked best when there were contestants that knew their stuff

[@flightofthebumblebee9529]

Chris is great at critiquing films on video amd Jeremy is an excitable lad with a legendary rating system. We need both because they are very different even when they enjoy the same films.

[@AngrySilencer]

Man... a Jeremy and Chris Podcast would’ve been AMAAAAAZIIING! I was always wondering about the tbh boring shows that they hosted ion SJ+. Those shows weren’t about them and to me a Jeremy and Chris crossover would’ve been super interesting.

[@tjanderson5892]

Not sure how producers convince themselves that ppl who subscribe and consume Chris and Jeremy’s content regularly for free would then instantly be interested in now spending money for similar or lesser quality content. YTs appeal and ability to retain and grow audiences is largely bc it’s free. Tryin to get ppl who enjoy their free content to start paying just doesn’t track imo lol. They def prob weren’t trying to pitch paid subscriptions to their viewers from their massively successful shows. If anything w/e show this dude had shoulda been free for a year or so. Let ppl experience it and begin to like it hopefully. Then put up the paywall or w/e. Expect half of the subs to leave, but at least the ones still standing or forkin over the green. Definitely can’t be expected to review movies for free bc ya enjoy it. If ya not gettin paid then ya not working. Except there’s millions of other ppl doing it for free and better. Idk if charging for film reviews will ever be sustainable

One gives a viewpoint of a common man, a guy who just watches movies, can see the good and bad points about a movie but ultimately decides whether or not he would enjoy that movie with the flaws, Jeremy. The other reviews movies with a more technical perspective and highlights things that a common person may or may not notice, which may ir may not enhance their experience of the movie, Chris. When you watch reviews from both of these guys, your experience of the movie changes.

[@mwheeler22]

[@nicholassemelak6224]

[@sivad1025]

Movie Games was enjoyable, but it was always... off. You could feel Jeremy's lack of real enthusiasm and the pacing was super bizarre. The games themselves were super fun, but they seemed a a bit random and overly dramatic for having no stakes. I think this is why Flick Bait was the best. It had the fun game components of shows like Movie Games but ran on the intentional lack of seriousness.

[@22centuryfacts]

So basically, you make a clickbait type video, making it seem like the two have beef, ONLY to say there’s 1: no beef & 2: it was your fault for making bad shows?
